PM's decision bit selfish, if they really wanted to curb black money, why they took this decision after 2 yrs: Mayawati

New Delhi: The Bahujan Samajwadi Party (BSP) chief Mayawati, on Thursday, attacked ruling Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) government in general and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in particular over the notes ban. "Only the people from Gujarat state and Mumbai are benefited from this initiative taken by PM Narendra Modi". BSP Chief said. Mayawati came out all guns blazing and said-"To hide their inefficiency, economic emergency like situations have been created by the govt as elections in UP are coming close". Ex-UP CM also attacked BJP government for helping businessmen. "First, BJP helped businessmen to store black money and now after two years of their government rule they are planning to curb the same." Mayawati also questioned the timing of the decision and said-"PM's decision is bit selfish, if they really wanted to curb black money then why they took this decision after two years." It is pertinent to mention here that Uttar Pradesh is going for polls in 2017 and BSP supremo Mayawati's party is also one of the major contenders. The Congress, Samajwadi Party and BJP are the others.
